I made it to Munich and took a day tripto visit two castle- Linderoff Palace and Schloss Neuschwanstein- the castle that the Disney Castle is mirrored to!! I boarded a bus at about 8am and traveled with about 60 others in a two level bus..not too bad. We had our own time once we arrived at our destination.
Schloss Neuschwanstein- this IS the disneyland castle!
Schloss Neuschwanstein was HUGE! Well..from the outside anyway..the inside never got finished as King Ludwig II died in the middle of construction work so it never got done. But we did see the few rooms that were finished which included his bedroom which happen to have a theme of Tristan and Isolde. When the guide told us that..I thought `I LOVE that movie!` Of course, I had to buy a postcard of his room! Around the castle grounds, I hiked up major steepness to get to Marienplatz which is this bridge that gives you a great view of the castle and the countryside that surrounds it..beautiful!
If you ever get a chance..do make a visit!
